Acupuncture is a therapy stimulating specific points on the body with fine needles in order to achieve a therapeutic effect. Acupuncture needles can vary in length but stay nice and thin, our needles are thick as a strand of baby’s hair. After inserting acupuncture needles at certain points on the body, the needles are retained for 20-25 minutes to stimulate the local and surrounding tissues.

Cupping therapy is one of the most common techniques of acupuncture, pulling the skin into the cup via warming up air in the cup; negative pressure. Cupping therapy has two types, stationary and mobile; stationary cupping leaves the cups on the skin for 5-10 minutes, and mobile cupping refers to moving a cup on the skin with cream or oil.

Trigger point release focuses on reducing pain by easing the tension and tightness at specific points.

There are many factors that can contribute to indigestion or poor digestion. Stress is a common cause of poor digestion or IBS. Stress can “unbalance” our autonomic nervous system which is used to support a healthy digestive system.   

Acupuncture can help with this.
